Abstract: A steering control device includes a control circuit and a drive circuit. The control circuit is configured to perform a current feedback computation by which the actual current value of electric current to be supplied to a motor follows a current command value. The control circuit is configured to execute an end-abutting relaxation control to correct the current command value such that decrease in an end interval angle is restricted, when the end interval angle is equal to or smaller than a predetermined angle, the end interval angle indicating the distance of the absolute steer angle from the end position correspondence angle. The control circuit is configured to adjust a control gain to be used in the current feedback computation, such that the control gain increases, when overshoot of the actual current value occurs during the execution of the end-abutting relaxation control.

Abstract: A steering control apparatus for a steering system includes a controller. The controller sets a limit value to less than or equal to a steering angle limit value, the limit value being an upper limit of an absolute value of a torque command value, and controls a motor such that a motor torque follows the torque command. When the absolute value of a rotation angle of a rotary shaft exceeds a steering angle threshold, the controller computes a damping control amount such that the damping control amount increases with an increase in an excess of an angular velocity of the rotary shaft over a first upper limit angular velocity. The controller computes the torque command value based on a value obtained by combining the basic command value and the damping control amount such that an absolute value of the basic command value is reduced.

Abstract: A steering control device includes a microcomputer. The microcomputer is configured to calculate a torque command value that is a target value of a motor torque, set a restricting value that is an upper limit of an absolute value of the torque command value, restrict the absolute value of the torque command value to be equal to or less than the restricting value, control driving of a motor such that the motor torque follows the restricted torque command value, calculate a steering angle restricting value that decreases based on an increase of an absolute value of a rotation angle, and an absolute value of an angular velocity, when the absolute value of the rotation angle of the rotary shaft exceeds a steering angle threshold, and set the restricting value to be a value equal to or less than the steering angle restricting value.

Abstract: A control steered angle calculation unit includes: an end position determination unit that determines whether a rack shaft is located at either one of right and left rack end positions; a motor absolute angle calculation unit that detects a motor absolute angle; an end position-corresponding motor angle setting unit that, when the rack shaft is determined to be located at either one of the right and left rack end positions, sets the detected motor absolute angle as an end position-corresponding motor angle corresponding to the one of the right and left rack end positions; and a control steered angle origin setting unit that calculates an average value of right and left end position-corresponding motor angles as an offset angle, and sets an angle obtained by subtracting the offset angle from the detected motor absolute angle as an origin of the control steered angle represented by the motor ab solute angle.
